Ridiculously easy question...........

To all Big cahunas on this hallowed Forum'
May I pose a simple question?
What thou thinketh of the 'Ridiculously
Simple' series about Anatomy,Physiology,Microbio
et al.
Are they helpful?
Suggestions will be gratefully acknowledged via telepathy.
Thanks & regards
NN

Thumbs down dude, you have to stay away from the bio chem version

I saw the bio chem version OMG!
wut **.

phospholipid village has many islands some of which are

phosphatidlcholine island
their neighbour phophotidylenoline island
they are both made from the great and all powerful phophatidic acid.

its like all the complicated words have an ridiculous words attached to them. and they have tried to make a story out of it.
complete b.s. stay away.
I would much rather get the BRS.

Question re

Would posters justify buying Physiology & Pharma books from the Ridiculously Simple series, as a 'starter' book[which means the ridiculous series will the only book read] during premeds, when we have a lot of time to kill?
Thanks
NN
